Rewind back to March 2021: Premier League football was being played behind closed doors due to the coronavirus pandemic, there was a 'roadmap' to try and get the UK out of its third lockdown and Chelsea had just picked up a rare victory against Liverpool at Anfield.
Mason Mount scored the only goal of the game – and what a goal it was – as the Blues secured three points in an empty stadium. It was Chelsea's first Premier League win at Anfield since November 2014. A rare feat for the club and a statement of intent from newly-appointed Thomas Tuchel, who was less than two months into his reign at Chelsea.
Almost two years on, that is Chelsea's last win at Anfield as Graham Potter heads to Merseyside on Saturday afternoon to try and make it back-to-back Premier League victories for his side for the first time since October. Potter saw his side beat Crystal Palace last time out at Stamford Bridge – and was relieved – but he knows all too well about the difficulty of recording consecutive wins in the top-flight.
